Balancing Efficiency and Risk with Flexible Catch Balancing Policies

Creator:: Holland, Dan and Herrera, Guillermo E.
Abstract:: In multispecies fisheries managed with individual fishery quotas (IFQs), fishers targeting certain species often have insufficient quota to cover other jointly caught species. New Zealand employs a unique dual price-quantity system to address this problem. In lieu of acquiring quota, fishers can opt to pay a fee per unit of...
